Both of my questions have no correct answers if you are unbiased. My intent was to get people thinking.


You asked what you thought were open ended questions but turned out to have concrete answers. Maybe you are also one of these people who should reflect?


Same way "7" is a concrete answer to "How many colors does the Rainbow have?". But the answer does not relate to the physical object at all, but is actually the idea of Isaac Newton.


Nope, not in the same way as all. One of your questions was just a straightforward misunderstanding of the terminology. It just wasn't as deep as you thought it was, and if your desire is to be honest with yourself and grow, you should recognize that. If you're trying to challenge other people's ideas to provoke them into a new position, but aren't ready to recognize when your own ideas have fallen short, than I'd suggest tending your own garden before worrying about whether your neighbor is underwatering.

I failed to make you question the terminology, obviously.


Again, don't worry about whether I failed to think or question, worry about whether you are actually engaging in the way you prescribe. If you were as enlightened as you believe you are, you wouldn't be so defensive.


What you write makes no point.


Back at you bud! Have a good one.
